Guys,

I'm the US Citizen. I filed I-48, I-130, I-131, I765 on December 9th, 2008.

My wife plans to leave the country in the first week of March for about 4 month.

Question # 1: Will the USCIS postpone the Interview until she returns since they already know what her intentions are by looking at the I-131 application.

Question 2: If my wife is out of the country and I get an Interview letter, can I just write them back and tell them that she's outside the country now and they need to reschedule the Interview.. Or will that subject my wife to some more difficulties down the road.

- It is advisable not to leave while the Adjustment of status is pending. Exception is leaving with an approved advanced parole(AP) but again AP is meant for temporary travel and not staying outside for longer period of time. You might get AP by first week of March but better not to travel for long period of time. Best is to seek professional help from attorney.

Question 3: Will my wife be interviewed before March the 10th.

- I doubt this. People applying in early Nov are getting interview appointment in mid march assuming process is goes with RFE and/or other problems.

Question 4: Where can I get some real data about processing times (Other than the USCIS web site).

This forum. Look at signatures of last 100 posts :)

Jan 22nd was the LUD and EAD card ordered date. Feb 2nd is EAD receive date. Is it safe to assume the date EAD is effective is the date card is ordered? Can you check your EAD card and let me know?

I have this question coz, job is lined up but waiting for EAD and in this economy very day counts.

I have not yet received an interview letter. Online it still says "case received and pending" but the LUD has been changed to 12/31/08.
 
No FP

I have not received my Mom's Biometrics (FP) notice so far. How many of you November filers are in the same boat?

drgeorge: There seems to be some problem in communication link.
Please call the customer service number given on USCIS web site and give them your receipt number given in NOA-I797C for 765 and 485 to inquire about BIO appointment.
I have never done infopass, but please consider that too.
Any way, before they process EAD, they will have to do Bio as EAD has fingerprint on it.

Got my notice for interview today. The interview is March 27. There's quite a list of documents that they want you to bring! :eek:

Also, I successfully used my AP just a few days ago. I was in Canada with my husband visiting my family. I was a little nervous when they pulled me aside and took my documents but apparently that's the way ot's done. Phew!
